Favorite Thing: Classic Trench



Any fan of film Noir knows that the trench coat is the ultimate wardrobe staple.  Here is the beautiful Gene Tierney from a scene in Laura.  If you haven't seen this move, get it tonight!
I have wanted a classic trench coat for a long time, and finally this year, I got it.  Note: It was on sale big-time. I'm feeling like solving a mystery on a rainy night with a dark stranger...or just taking a stroll through the streets of Paris.  It is amazing what one article of clothing can conjure.

Audrey and Givenchy.  Amazing.

Here it is!  My new wardrobe staple...now I just need the rain etc.

  1. Lovely! Had mine on today, though not a classic! I'd love a tried-and-true one someday!

  2. Hi Lizzie! Got to love a classic. But I have a more non-traditional one, as well, and I wear it quite a bit too. Hope you get the one you want soon!

    Have a great weekend!
